It doesn't seem right to use styles to get rid of automatic hyperlinking.
Either a hfef , and only it, should do that, or else provide a general setting option to disable that.
Thanks anyway kathybaldridge

Here it is again and fixed:

Wow, yes it did!

But... that's a really strange way of circumvent this, don't you think so?

Besides, as far as I am with WP.COM - around two years - "Paragraph" has always been the default paragraph and any url that I typed under "Paragraph" didn't get automatically hyperlinked: if I wanted to do so, I would use the hyperlink button, or, in other words, add an explicit a href html clause.
It really doesn't make sense to use the pre html clause to eliminate automatic hyperlinking. Is the pre html clause intendend to do this? Shoudn't hyperlinks be controled by the a href clause (or the hyperlink button in visual editing)?
This doesn't seem to be the best programming practice, to add an extra functionality to something that originally wasn't intended to do so.

So now WP.COM is forcing post behaviour thru styles, adding functionality to

that wasn't the main purpose?

Sun, 14 Jul 2013 21:41:37 +0000kathybaldridge1347068@https://en.forums.wordpress.com/Yeah, I noticed the same thing. I tried changing the style and that removed the hyperlink. It looks like the visual editor defaults to "Paragraph". I changed it to "Preformatted Text" and the hyperlink was removed. Will that work for your purposes?

Sun, 14 Jul 2013 21:33:20 +0000glapido1347064@https://en.forums.wordpress.com/Actually, when I typed the previous comment, I didn't hyperlinked that google url, but I see that it now shows hyperlinked.
I didn't use the hyperlink button when I typed it.

You should be able to click in the hyperlinked text and select the "Unlink" icon in the visual editor's toolbar.

No, because in the editor, either in visual or text mode, it doesn't show hyperlinked, it's like it isn't still hyperlinked.

According to your suggestion, it is like if I had previously set it hyperlinked, which I didn't.

If I simply type this url http://www.google.com, either in visual or text mode, without clicking the hyperlink button, it automatically gets hyperlinked when I preview the post (or publish it), not when I edit, like I said in my previous comment. In the editor, it shows only like text, not like an hyperlink.

What I don't want is that this text gets automatically hyperlinked when published, I want to be able do decide about it.

If you wish to avoid this, the only way I know of would be to switch to the Text editor

No, that doesn't work.
I entered the url in the text editor, saved the post, and when I clicked the preview button, it showed hyperlinked.

Something has changed in this regard, because until some months ago, I could decide if I would hyperlink an url or not, by using the hyperlink button in the visual editor (or add the a href html clause in the text editor).

What is most intriguing is that after the typed url shows hyperlinked in preview, the a href html clause still doesn't show in the text editor, thus blocking me to choose what I want.

Shouldn't I be granted the freedom to decide if I want to hyperlink an url or not?

Sun, 14 Jul 2013 17:45:55 +0000ljkjklqljkhwhljkfqjhklfqjlkqjlh1346889@https://en.forums.wordpress.com/Hi there. Whenever you type in a URL while using the visual editor, it will auto-hyperlink. If you wish to avoid this, the only way I know of would be to switch to the Text editor.

However, I'd ask why you don't want those URL's to be hyperlinked in the first place; presumably anyone interested in those URL's would like to be able to view them. It sure is easier to click on a link than to copy and paste the URL into your address bar.
